milk intake 18 months
How much are your lo's having?
My lo is on toddler formula, she went through a phase of being sick if she had cows milk as a drink, now she will have a few sips and that's it, the look of absolute disgust on her face is a picture lol.
Anyway, she has 3 x 6oz bottles a day plus cheese and yoghurt most days, i'm thinking of cutting out a bottle (sippy cup) or maybe even going cold turkey and dropping formula completely?
Any experiences, what do you think?

please dont take offence but 3 bottles of forumla a day for 18months seems rather alot to me? Doesn't it fill her up so much that she doesnt want much food? If shes eating well aswell though then thats brilliant!
Yeah I realise it seems a lot now, I never really thought about it I suppose as she's been on the toddler formula from a year old when she needed to still have quite a high milk intake? It never occurred to me to drop it down a bit now we are 6 months on as she eats like a horse!
I am thinking it might be a bit much now, I've dropped the afternoon bottle today and she didn't seem even slightly bothered?
Formula is expensive tbh, nearly ??10 a tub now, shocking! I might try an afternoon drink of cows milk, she really doesn't seem to like it though bless her
have you tried the milk as different temps? when LO turned 12 months he would only have the milk warmed but now hes not fussed warm or cold x
glad your LO like the warmed cows milk xx
it was at 14 months i last saw her paed about her milk and he said at that age milk isnt as big as worry. think i worded last post wrong,lol!
she is 19 motnhs same age as James
